West Quoddy Station LLC0

For starters, we were there for Hurricane Lee. The folks at West Quoddy Station seemed to be on top of everything, which provided us with needed peace of mind on a trip that could have otherwise been stressful. They were prepared for the storm with generators, while many other lodgings in the area were not, and they didn't lose power, even when the rest of the town and other lodgings did. The communication was fantastic, I was able to reach somebody every time I called or reached out. This might sound like a small thing, but there was a pending storm, and we reached out multiple times to all the places we had booked for that leg of the trip, the West Quoddy station was the only one to reliably pick up and respond to us every single time. Anything that may have needed a more thorough explanation/instructions (ex. the heater with a temp sensor on the floor), was given just that, it made arrival, check-in, and the whole stay effortless. The location was fantastic, with gorgeous views of Lubec and Quoddy Narrows. Both Lubec and West Quoddy light were very close by, and we were treated to one of the most spectacular fire red sunsets I've ever seen.

We could only stay one night because they were booked up the other nights. This is a failure to plan on my part though, next time we'll have to book far more in advance to stay there the entire time.

The facility was fabulous, a historical naval station, with a cupola at the top (of spiral stairs) which gave a 360 degree view of the property. Wonderful view of the ocean! Loved walking around the area and being able to visit the lighthouse which is about 1-2 miles further down the road. Also loved having separate BR and living area with kitchen. It was very comfortable and we would return again if in Maine. Very clean and very comfortable, very well managed property. If traveling from north along Rt 1 don't let GPS take you thru Eastport on Hwy 190 unless you are SURE ferry is operating otherwise you'll waste 1-1/2 hours; only route in is via 189 or 191.

The bathroom was strange due to the building layout, long and narrow with a small walk-in shower. The mirror was on the opposite wall from the vanity and there wasn't much room for toiletries. Also, kitchen could use an additional outlet b/c the one was used for fridge, microwave, toaster and/or coffee maker. Had to unplug microwave to use another small appliance. Everything could be worked around and it wasn't a deal breaker, it was just a little inconvenient.

Being a history buff - and in particular, a fan of old lighthouses / lifestations - it was a thrill to spend the night in an old Coast Guard lifestation. The history of the place, and the location in Lubec, Maine, made it a very special stay. It was a really foggy night when we stayed, but that only added to the ambiance that made Midwesterners like us enjoy the stay all the more. Although he didn't identify himself as such, I believe it was the owner who greeted us when we arrived and gave us a personal "lay of the land", including recommending a restaurant in Lubec which we ultimately had dinner at, which had a fabulous view of the water and a Canadian lighthouse (Mulholland Point Light). There are multiple buildings on the site; we stayed in "The Lodge", which once was the maintenance building for the old Coast Guard Lifesaving station, where they pulled the boats in to work on them. The room itself was very well equipped, with two double beds in the bedroom, a large bath, and a large kitchen / dinette / living area. The kitchen was well-equipped, though we did not use it except for the full-size refrigerator. The floors are primarily tile, which is a little cold in the morning, but the bathroom is clean and large (note: The water takes a pretty good length of time to warm up as the rooms in the Lodge are the furthest from the water heater.) There is a greate view of the water - unfortunately, the fog took that view away from us. The lighthouse is 5 minutes down the street and is a must-see. The West Quoddy Station features a number of "extras", including patios, games, etc, Beds were OK, but more than acceptable. Close to the downtown area of Lubec, Maine, and some nice little restaurants, just be aware that most of them close between 7 and 8 pm!

Nothing. Great stay.

This property has everything a couple or family would need. It’s proximity to so many interesting things to do is great. For example, only minutes away are hiking/walking trails, lighthouse, shops and views that will take your breath away. The property was super clean and filled with all the necessities. Great WiFi connection. Incredible peacefulness. Good job to the owners who have clearly gone above and beyond.

Oh my goodness, there was absolutely nothing/ nada/zero things I did not like about this place. Simply wish it was closer to my home so I could stay more often.

it’s a grouping of buildings, with a couple of rooms in each building. each room is unique, very large, very quiet, very comfortable and situated in the most picturesque place you could ever imagine. Canada is minutes away and the walking trails around the lighthouse at the end of the road, are so beautiful, we are definitely coming back. The kitchen had a large refrigerator, sink, range, microwave and sink, plus all the dishes and utensils you would need to prepare and eat meals. Local towns are something right out of a movie set.

I love how far off the beaten path, this location is situated; however, I can imagine others taking issue with it.

Nice accommodations with dishes and utensils.

Lackluster WiFi and not enough coffee. There was only one pack of coffee provided for the coffee maker. I was under the impression that I would be able to walk to the lighthouse. In theory, you can, but I made it about 500 feet and turned around and went back. The road is very narrow with no shoulders and in many places there is nowhere to step off if there is a car coming. I felt it was too dangerous to walk on, especially later in the day when the sun might be in peoples eyes.

Loved the proximity to the West Quoddy lighthouse and ocean. We were able to sit and enjoy the sunset from the deck. Our room was very comfortable, had all the amenities even though we didn’t stay long enough to get to use them. The bed was excellent and we got a great nights sleep. There was no AC but thankfully between the standing fan placed in the bedroom and breeze coming from the ocean we stayed comfortable. It was a very quiet & relaxing stay after an extremely long day of traveling & exploring.

Nothing- wish we could’ve stayed longer!

The view and setting were fantastc. COMPLETE kitchen. Nice thick fluffy towels (to which I had never given much thought, but after motels with thin loofa (scratchy!?!)towels, these were glorious) . Huge studio. It was a campus of refurbished coast guard buildings with little sitting and picnic areas from which we could enjoy the view.

Our unit didn't have the best view compared to others but didn't matter, we were still able to explore and take in the view from various sitting areas and walks.

Kimball room was more than spacious for both of us. We had everything we needed. Location was excellent. Watched the sunset from the deck. The whole property is so beautiful with ocean views! Short drive across Canada to Campobello was one of the highlights on our trip to Lubec. And we loved the short trails we did around the lighthouse and around Lubec.

Nothing about the property. But could be very foggy/misty during sunset times then you lose the views.

Everything. our whole experience at the Meeting House was nearly perfect. so much space, perfect location, clean all around, friendly and helpful staff. we couldn’t believe how lucky we were to get this property. when the hot water went off, we called the staff and they handled it within minutes. there was only one drawback…

… the beds were atrocious. hard like a prison mattress. the master was the worst. I tried the couch for the second night — too short for me. so I heaped every blanket, quilt and comforter on the bed and it softened it just a bit. the kids said theirs upstairs were hard, too. I like a firm mattress, but these were HARD. Upgrading the beds is severely overdue.
